Kabataang artista, binatikos ang MTRCB

Ito ang iskor ng Kabataang Artista Para Sa Tunay Na Kalayaan (KARATULA), pambansang organisasyon ng mga kabataang artista, para sa MTRCB na nagpataw ng 20 araw na suspension ng MTRCB sa Showtime noong Enero 12, dulot ng mga pahayag ni Rosanna Roces sa kabila ng self-regulation ng ABS-CBN na tanggalin si Roces bilang isa sa mga hurado.

Sa suspension ng Showtime, ang tunay na talo ay ang mga kabataang nais lamang ipakita ang kanilang sining at talento, sabi ni Ana Tarina Lulu, Pambansang Tagapangulo ng KARATULA.

Sa tingin ng organisasyon, hindi maikakaila ang popularidad ng mga palabas sa telebisyon na nagpapamalas ng talento at pagiging malikhain ng mga Pilipino. Bukod sa premyo, nakikita ng mga lumalahok ang palabas bilang isang pagkakataon upang maipamalas ang kanilang talento at kanilang kultura, sa kabila ng kakapusan ng mga programa ng gobyerno upang itaguyod ang pagpapaunlad at pagtanghal sa kanilang sining.

"Sa hirap ngayon, nagdudulot ng panandaliang saya ang mga palabas na ito para sa mga manonood na gustong ma-aliw sa kabila ng lugmok na kalagayan na nararanasan ng maraming Pilipino araw-araw," ani ni Lulu.

Para sa organisasyon, bahagi ang suspension ng Showtime sa lumalalang listahan ng mga kwestyunable at nakababahalang kaso ng sensura na ipinapataw ng MTRCB sa ilalim ng rehimen ni Gloria. Banggit ni Lulu, "Madalas na biktima ang mga matatapang at mapangahas na mga artistang nagsisiwalat ng kalagayan ng lipunan at kritikal sa gubyerno."

Ilan sa mga nasabing kaso ang pagpataw ng X rating ng MTRCB sa "Rights" , lipon ng mga pelikulang kritikal sa kalagayan ng karapatang pantao sa bansa mula sa iba't ibang film makers, "Mendiola" ng Sine Patriyotiko at sensura sa pelikulang "Kinatay" ni Brillante Mendoza, na siyang umani ng papuri mula ibang bansa. Sa pelikula ni Joel Lamangan na "Dukot" , pinabura ang mukha ni Gloria sa iilang eksenang nag-uugnay sa kanya sa ekstra-hudisyal na pamamaslang. Dagdag ni Lulu, "Pinapakita nito na ginagamit ang ahensya para sa pulitikal na represyon."

Nananawagan ang KARATULA, kasama ng iba pang pangkulturang organisasyon at samahan ng mga artista, na muling suriin at pag-aralan ang tungkulin at Implementing Rules and Regulations ng MTRCB. Patuloy ang pangangampanya ng organisasyon sa pagtataguyod ng makabayan, siyentipiko, at makamasang sining at kulturang nagsisilbi sa interes at kapakanan ng aping mamamayang Pilipino. ###

Gibo, bigo sa kabataang artista : Paggamit ng ‘Posible’, kinundena


“Bigo si Gibo na makukuha ang boto ng mga kabataang artista.”

Kinundena ng Kabataaang Artista Para Sa Tunay Na Kalayaan (KARATULA),pambansang organisayon ng mga kabatang artista, ang paggamit ni Gilbert Teodoro ng kantang “Posible” ng mang-aawit na si Rico Blanco sa kanyang mgakampanya at patalastas sa telebisyon sa kabila ng pagkwestyon ng musikeroat ng Warner Music Philippines.“Nagulat ako nang mabalitaan ko na ginamit ang kanta nang walang paalam,maski ang paggaya ng boses ni Rico Blanco. Pinakita ni Gibo ang kawalanpakialam niya sa batas ng Intellectual Property at respeto sa mga artistaat sa kanilang sining,” sabi ni Ana Tarina Lulu, Pambansang Tagapangulo ngKARATULA .Kinikilalang idolo at music icon si Rico Blanco ng maraming kabataangPilipino. Patunay sa mataas na respeto ng mga kabataan sa kanya ang tweet,isang social networking, ni Blanco tungkol sa mga estudyanteng hayskul nanagpapaalam pa sa kanya upang gamitin nila ang kanyang mga kanta sakanilang proyekto, kahit hindi naman kailangan, ayon sa KARATULA. Dagdag ni Lulu, “Makapangyarihan ang mga kanta at jingles para sa kampanyang pagpapanalo sa isang kandidato. Pero kahit gaano pa man kalaganap angkanyang mga patalastas na puno ng ‘Galing at Talino’, hindi maitatago angkabulukan niya at ng kanyang amo na si Gloria Arroyo.”

Diin ng organisasyon, walang pinagkaiba si Gilbert Teodoro sa kanyangkapartido na si Arroyo dahil ipagpapatuloy lamang niya ang mgaanti-artista, anti-kabataan, at anti-mamamayan na mga polisiya ngnakaupong rehimen.“Madilim ang huling siyam na taon para sa mga kabataang artista dahil samga batas na kumikitil sa karapatan ng malayang pamamahayag tulad ng Rightof Reply Bill, di makatarungang kaso ng sensura sa mga artista na kritikalsa kalagayan ng bansa, at mabahong rekord nito ng karapatang pantao. Dapatmanagot si Gloria, kasama ang kanyang tuta sa depensa na si Gibo, samaraming paglabag nito sa karapatang pantao ng mga artista at mamamayan,”sabi ni Lulu.

Nananawagan ang organisasyon sa mga kabataan na maging kritikal sa pagpiling mga kandidato at dapat masusing pag-aralan ang kanilang mga programakung tunay itong magsisilbi sa nakakararami.

Featuring our first guest presidential candidate Gilbert Teodoro. Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 9-11 am, UPMASA-PGH Science Hall. Pre-enlistment required. See you!


A prosperous and peaceful 2010 to you!

The 2010 national elections is fast approaching, and as the health sciences center of the country, the University of the Philippines Manila must play a crucial role in shaping the future of our country’s health and in influencing the health agenda of our leaders.

Thus, the University Student Council, the highest student governing body of the University of the Philippines Manila, in partnership with the Medicine Student Council, the Institute of Health Policy and Development Studies of the National Institutes of Health and the UP Manila Information, Publication, and Public Affairs Office (IPPAO), present the
MAKE HEALTH COUNT: The UP Manila Presidential Series.

This series of forums, featuring the presidential aspirants for the 2010 elections, will provide a venue for UP Manila students, faculty, and staff, as well as for other members of the Philippine health sector including non-government organizations and even the media, to engage in dialogue with presidential candidates on issues concerning Philippine health. Through the MHC series, the UP Manila health sciences community also hopes to inform the presidential candidates about key health issues that needs to be promptly addressed as well as learn about the candidates’ opinions and plans of action in solving these problems.

Therefore, we cordially invite you to the first forum of the series which will be held this Wednesday, January 27, 2010, 9 – 11 am, at the UPMASA-PGH Science Hall. Our first guest presidential candidate is former Secretary of Defense
Gilbert “Gibo” Teodoro of the Lakas-NUCD-KAMPI.

We hope that through this dialogue, the UP Manila health sciences community and the entire health sector would be able to raise the essential questions and even provide recommendations on improving the health of the Filipino people. Let us work harmoniously in ensuring that the next president of our country will truly make our health count.

Seats are very limited. Please confirm your attendance to Gerald Soliman by sending your complete name to 09178107235 or gerald_sol88@yahoo.com. You may also contact him should you have any questions or concerns. We also want to remind you that food and drinks are not allowed inside the hall.

Make Health Count
Every time there is a national election, we hear presidential aspirants talk about their plans for improving economy or share opinions about political issues. Sadly, little has been said by politicians about their vision and program of action for improving the health of the Filipino people.

With failing marks in almost all health indicators and a rapidly widening gap in access to health between the rich and the poor, the Philippines is in dire need of a new leader who will place the health of the Filipino people as a major priority, if not the topmost in the list. We need a president who not just has a deep understanding of the Philippine health situation and the various social determinants that influence it, but more so has a concrete plan in facing the myriad health challenges that we Filipinos face today.

As the health sciences center of the country, the University of the Philippines Manila plays a crucial role in shaping the health system and improving the health status of the Philippines . Moreover, it is imperative that the university exhaust all means to influence the health agenda of our leaders. It is indisputable that UP Manila has the knowledge and expertise to help steer the health of the nation to the right direction – its first century is a shining testament. Now, the fast-approaching 2010 elections is one big opportunity for UP Manila to initiate the national discourse towards progress and equity in health.

This school year, the University Student Council of UP Manila started a university-wide initiative called MAKE IT COUNT 2010. Joined in by various college councils, socio-civic organizations and student political parties in UP Manila , MIC 2010 aims to help the Iskolar ng Bayan realize his vital role in the upcoming 2010 elections. Moreover, this initiative hopes to create avenues for heightened dialogue among students and even politicians regarding different issues concerning the elections and the country at large.

Aside from forums on first time voting, satellite COMELEC registrations, and university-wide mock elections at the end of the school year, the highlight of Make It Count is MAKE HEALTH COUNT, a series of forums featuring presidential aspirants. Led by the USC, the member-organizations of MIC 2010, the Institute of Health Policy and Development Studies of the National Institutes of Health, and the UP Manila Information, Publication, and Public Affairs Office (IPPAO), this series aims to provide a venue for UP Manila students, faculty, and staff to engage in dialogue with presidential candidates on issues concerning Philippine health. Through the MHC series, the UP Manila health sciences community hopes to inform the presidential candidates about key health issues that needs to be promptly addressed as well as learn about the candidates’ opinions and plans of action in solving these problems.

This 2010 elections, UP Manila hopes to elect a president who is healthy, not just physically, but more importantly in terms of his programs and policies in the next six years. Now more than ever, we need a “healthy president” who can ensure the health and well-being of the Filipino nation. We need to MAKE HEALTH COUNT!

NUSP vows support for Maza, Ocampo

January 11, 2010

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Reference:

EINSTEIN RECEDES, National President, 09156469177

NUSP vows support for Maza, Ocampo; calls disqualification bids “cheap shots”

The country’s largest student union vowed its full support for senatorial candidates Liza Maza and Satur Ocampo.

In its recently concluded national congress, the National Union of Students of the Philippines (NUSP) passed a resolution "to support and ensure the victory of Bayan Muna Representative Satur Ocampo and Gabriela Representative Liza Maza in their senatorial bid.”

Einstein Recedes, the newly elected National President of NUSP, said that “the NUSP and the thousands of student leaders under it are determined to quantitatively and qualitatively contribute to the concerted efforts of various groups in securing senatorial posts for Rep. Ocampo and Rep. Maza in the upcoming elections. Both of them serve as invaluable inspirations amidst the current political landscape.”

“In their almost nine years as members of the House of Representatives, we recognize their ardent efforts to advance the interest of the youth and the people. Only few in Congress practice genuine service as Rep. Ocampo and Rep. Maza do. As student leaders, we see it as our ethical duty to install them as future senators of the people,” he said.

Maza and Ocampo have recently urged the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to junk separate disqualification cases filed against them. Both petitions have been parried by Maza and Ocampo as “false” and “malicious”.

Vanessa Bolibol, Secretary General of the NUSP, scoffed at the petitions saying they belong to the “motley of cheap shots” that have been hurled at Ocampo and Maza by “State and military apparatchiks.”

“These petitions are but two among the motley of cheap shots thrown at Rep. Maza and Rep. Ocampo by State and military apparatchiks who disguise themselves as free thinkers and peace lovers. Note the tone of these petitions. Don’t they sound all too tired and familiar? Any moderately sane individual won’t buy these lousy tricks that have been recycled time and again,” Bolibol said.

“These petitions cannot tarnish the record of Rep. Maza and Rep. Ocampo as genuine servants of the people. We likewise urge the Comelec to junk these petitions and focus on important matters such as ensuring a clean, honest and efficient election,” she said. ###
